Date Posted: 09:37:34 04/19/05 Tue In reply to: dave 's message, "Is this for real?" on 18:30:13 04/18/05 Mon Sorry Dave -- I type this with a chuckle...though perhaps a little more sensitivity is called for. :) I see where there may be some confusion. The predator/prey idea is not necessarily in reference to one gender role, at least in the previous post. Forget that terminology if you like. Let's try again...women and men both have strengths, and generally speaking they are different. To be feminine is POWERFUL, not weak. The power women have to create, when unveiled, is beyond words. There’s truth to the saying that behind every great man is a great woman (or women). She can also make or break him with a single look. Perhaps this is why there aren't more women in their power -- we have to be responsible with it, or there is catastrophe. And, when used well, it has and will change the course of history. And (I believe) we couldn't do it without men. Masculine power can carry out massive action, change, and transformation. Men will get things done, following through toward a goal, direction, or purpose beyond what women ordinarily would do. They are masters at defending and protecting – home, women, the tribe, etc. They are dedicated and loyal, and have the capacity to open a woman to god (i.e. within her/their bodies). When women inspire, acknowledge and truly support (and love) men in being their greatest, there is profound joy and fulfillment. When they in turn feel and know that they are loved, honored, and cherished unconditionally, they are able to open to him beyond imagination. She receives his love, is surrendered to and opened by him, and in the opening they both flourish. There is some zing and polarity (which can be fun) to a phrase like "I own you, Bitch." Many women may initially be offended, especially to read it (rather than hearing/feeling it) -- but WHEN it is accompanied by complete and unconditional love/cherishing/adoration of her, it could fly in certain stages of consciousness, or cycles/rhythms in life. It's amazing to feel deeply loved -- whether in complete Joy, or in the midst of the "Sacred Messy." To experience this with a partner is, at least for me, essential for the kind of fulfilled relationship I most desire. I part with a quote from my friend Donny Epstein: “The purpose of relationships is to turn up the heat and stir the soup.” (To stir up the emotional heat, the spiritual heat, etc.) [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
